Full Sail Old Boardhead Barleywine Clone
19 pounds pale malt
2 pounds crystal 60
2 pounds dextrin malt
1 pound flaked barley
1 ounce Centennial hops
2 ounces Kent Golding hops
2 ounces Styrian Golding hops
4 ounces Willamette hops
1 teaspoon Irish moss
Wyeast 1056 American Ale yeast
1 pack Champaign yeast
3/4 cup corn sugar
I did a single infusion mash for 90 minutes at 151 degrees. Sparged with
170 degree water for 45 minutes or until I got 6 gallons. Boiled for 60
minutes with 1 ounce of Centennial hops. Boiled 20 minutes with 2 ounces
Kent Goldings. Added one teaspoon of Irish Moss at the last 15 minutes of
the boil. Boiled 10 minutes with 2 ounces of Styrian Goldings. Boiled 2
minutes with 2 ounces of Willamette.
I stepped up my yeast three times so that I had a huge slurry of yeast (about
1/2 gallon).
I fermented this for 3 weeks in the primary and then racked to secondary
(I know this seems like a long time but it just kept going and going). The
gravity was at 1.040. I let sit in the secondary and it started fermenting
again for another week. I then racked again and the gravity was 1.030.
I then added 2 ounces of Willamette and dry hopped this for another two months.
Bottle this with 3/4 cup corn sugar and 1 pack of Champaign yeast. Let sit
up to one year if you can.
